Western Digital VelociRaptor 300GB SATA Hard DrivePosted by newsbot on April 21st 2008

The Western Digital VelociRaptor was a blast to test since it's n ot every day something this new and innovative comes across the test benc h. The Western Digital VelociRaptor is hands down the fastest single hard drive we have ever tested and it is hard to believe that the firmware is still being improved. It will be exciting to see how much more performa nce Western Digital will be able to get out of the VelociRaptor before it hits retail stores in May. As it stands right now having a burst speed o f over 250 MB/s and a sustained read speed pushing over 100 MB/s is enoug h to put a smile on our face. Just imagine running RAID 0 with a pair of these!
